No, this is common and modern knowledge.



You shouldn't spit words you don't understand.

Whose puppet are you though? The trolling is obvious.

This is accurate information.
I’m not joking.

Good luck with your studies.

Would you like to share your sources?

"Hard drugs" — it’s almost laughable to even read that.

You’ve got it all wrong from your so-called "scientific" perspective.

This thread can be closed.
Everything about you is perfectly clear.

Why aren't we sharing pictures of bomb-ass semp grows?

They've eluded me for years and I need my fix of sexy chocolate

Unfortunately I don’t have nice updates on my semp grows. I shared a photo before with what I thought was actually a primordium, but it didn’t change at all, and it also doesn’t really look like what I see at my zap grows for example. Furthermore I see some metabolites showing up already, so I doubt it’s going to be bomb-ass

Sorry to hear that man. I've tried a few times over the years and haven't gotten fruit yet.

I just put a plate through a CS so maybe this time **fingers crossed**

Kloakk will show up here eventually with some beautiful Tres Soles to save us

Wait... How did they grow so fast? Fucking hell mine are mutated AF compared to yours

Here I am getting plins on plins, leucustic super survival mushroom which has been standing there since the first flush (spawned 3th of July) and some really interesting looking thick ass little mushrooms...

Semps has been my white whale for the last year, tried a lot and never got them to fruit... UNTIL NOW



For me what (seemingly) did the trick was to properly pasteurize my coir, for reasons I dont know. But if I remember correctly i have tried the same plate before and it triched out right after casing.

When I used bucket tech I had no problems when growing cubes and ochras, but for some reason semps didnt do it. The bucket teched coir can also sit prepped for weeks and dont show signs of mold. I know people get away with it, and are very vocal about it in this thread that you dont need to pasteurize. I just want to spread the word that if you have failed repeatedly, it can be a good thing to try.

The reason why I pasteurized was a section in Melgo's writeup.

Melgo said:

I used to pasteurize my substrates and casing for one hour - that was not enough. We chatted quite a bit with Hindsight and he's the one who helped me on this part, telling me he'd pasteurized all his stuff for 2 hours and had seen dramatic improvement.

I followed his advice, pasteurized my substrates and casing for 2 hours. This step and couple others (which I'll write down below) eliminated my Trichoderma problems with Semperviva!

No disrespect meant, but you are new here and it seems you are just here to argue.

At the end of the day, anything that alters your biochemistry could be considered a drug, including foods, but does it really matter?

We all know what we're talking about on an intuitive level.

Anyways, if I got you wrong, apologies, but it seems it might be good to lurk for awhile to get the lay of the land. These are good folk here.

Meanwhile, back on topic, I've got some semps on pf tek cakes that are colonizing but ever so slowly. I think really slow because I made two stupid noobie mistakes:

1) used commercial rice flour, which was tooooo fine
2) shot too much spore solution into the pf tek jars, which caused the mixture to become clumpy like clay.

It seems I am destinted to do everything wrong, before hopefully, doing it right.

You guys all make it look so easy lol! I'm over 6 months into trying to grow and my only success (don't laugh) has been from a freaking AIO grow bag that spit out oodles of golden teachers from MSS! All my agar attempts and shoeboxes so far have failed.

EDIT: These are my latest hopefuls...

I’m far from a novice.
I’ve been involved with mushrooms for nearly half my life.

It just bothers me when people write about drugs.

Everyone has their own perspective.
All the best.

They look smashing imo

I'll keep at it, and thanks for the encouragement mate
